Features:
Specs:
Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.
Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.
In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.
At etrailer.com we're committed to the products we sell, and to our customers.

Fully welded vehicle trailer hitch is strong and durable. Draw-Tite's Tested Tough guarantee ensures that this hitch exceeds industry standards. The combination of an e-coat base and a powder coat finish provides excellent rust protection.Fits fine on a 2022 Lexus NX450H+. Does not require cutting a notch in the bumper like some hitches. Install is simple with gear wrenches. Recommend a second person to hold one side. Tow hook has to be removed as stated in video. Unlike video, kick sensor does not work after install. Bottom of the crossbar is even with bottom of the bumper, which means the receiver sits 1”+ lower than necessary. Design could be improved to raise the receiver tube for the NX450H+.
Great and fast service A few dings in the finish from breaking thru the box but touched up with a file and spray paint. I found I could not do the install, old and misused joints. Called etrailer while I was still under the car in frustration and a wonderful CSR found me a local shop and texted me the phon# to just click on
Delray Tire and Auto fit me in for the next day at a more than reasonable price Done looks good
Should use some wood for protection of product
Like many, the boxing of the hitch didn’t stop the hitch from breaking though the box. Still, hitch totally fine despite hanging 6” out of the box. Regarding install: Wow! It’s heavy so you need two people. We didn’t even lift our 2024 Lexus NX 350h. We just slid underneath wiggled it in and set the back screws. To get the front screws in it was helpful to have a little pump jack to hold then hold the hitch up as we lined up the 3rd and 4th screws. Whole thing probably too 30, maybe 45 minutes inclusive of reading the instructions and fishing out the right tools. Love, love it.
Fits great, instructions were thorough. On my vehicle I had to remove the rear tow hook from the frame prior to installation.
There is 9 1/2 inches of clearance with the car being empty.
Sits lower than I like. I think it is better designed for the RAV4, not the NX350h I put it on.
Not in the instructions was to remove the rear recovery point and the socket size listed was wrong (18mm in the instructions, needed a 19mm).
Super quick delivery. Ordered from your website on Monday night and it was on my doorstep Thursday morning and it was super easy to install. Not your fault…. But, I’m bummed that my foot kick feature to open the hatch door doesn’t work anymore. Hoping you might have a trick up your sleeve or a suggestion to get that feature to work again…I would hate to have this not work on a nice new car.
High quality, but it turned out that the bolts which attach the hitch to the body of the Rav4 required a 19mm driver, not 18mm as called out in the instructions.
Well, etrailer is notorious for sending hitches underpackaged. Your box will be trashed, but likely the hitch is ok. I don't know why they can't pad the boxes better.
But, they sent the right part and it arrived super speedy. I have a 2024 Lexus NX350h, and since this is a new year, the only hitch "certified" to fit was the Curt, which is more visible than the Draw-Tite hitches. I took a chance that since this model fits the 2023, it would work on the 2024 since there wasn't a major redesign of the car. I can attest that it does fit! It was not a one-man job to install, because it's tricky to maneuver and to get the bolt holes to line up just right. I had to bring it to a garage to have them install it, but with two guys working together it was done in 30' and only cost $150 for the install.
Note that etrailer calls this DT82QR but it is the Draw Tite 76634, and the label will say when it arrives.
This is how my order arrived. Broken open and damaged.
2022 Lexus 350NX Hybrid compatible. Note: This will render the manufacturer installed kick open/close for the hatch unusable. I will be remounting my sensor later.
The hitch is really sturdy and well manufactured.
Installation tips:
1. remove the two hook first
2. raise the rear of the car at least 1 foot to be able to slide the mount into place
3. bring a friend you can coordinate with to help - definitely a two person job
Amazing customer service and support, great prices and fast shipping!

Congratulations on the new car. Honestly, I do not have a work around to make the liftgate work again. It looks like we did have others who also lost the feature. I checked and the other hitches also will cause the feature to no longer work.
